I hope you are wrong, but I suspect you aren't. I'm hoping fans see the Big East team name and show up to support the team (honestly with the competition we've had so far, I've been impressed with fan turnout, it's improved from last year).

Would be great to have a big draw name like Cuse or UCONN coming to the PMAC, because a game like that would be a big draw regardless of time

I think that CJJ will do everything to bring teams like this into the PMAC starting next year for sure.


Another thing I noticed is that Seton Hall hasn't played on the road yet

I like this team. The newcomers are legit. I'm beginning to think this team may surprise everyone and make the NCAA tourney.


Woah, woah, woah. Pump the brakes a little. This team has certainly looked better than some of the previous year's groups, but they've played some pretty bad competition to start. While Seton Hall is probably a mid-tier Big East team (at best), they do represent a bump up in competition and should serve as somewhat of a baraometer as to where this team is early on. The next measuring stick will be the 3 game Mid-December road swing. I still don't think this team will be able to do a whole lot in SEC play (just don't have the size and numbers yet), but I'm excited to see how they look Thursday and will be there with my hotdog and coke ready to go!!!

This. Seton Hall would probably be ranked 4th or 5th in the SEC FWIW

We have to limit turnovers to have a chance, I love what this team can do when they are in sync, but when they are sloppy it gets really ugly.

We play our sloppiest when we start throwing in different sets of players. It'll be interesting to see how CJJ uses his substitutions on Thursday. If we don't get into foul trouble we may see this rotation for most of the night.

Hickey
Carmouche/Stringer
Malik/Hammink
Coleman

True. But it's only online and ends tomorrow. Make it to where people can walk up to the ticket booth an hour before tip-off and have the same deal

Agreed for the most part but everyone will have to rest some time so everyone will sit for at least a couple of minutes. My other exception would be that, until proven otherwise, Del Pierro has earned being an early substitution and part of the big men rotation. Unless JOB and Coleman are both playing lights out, I would except to see him in the game midway first half. Foul trouble will open up the door and Eddie and Courtney could see minutes also.

If Del Piero scores vs Seton Hall I'll go freaking nuts.

no doubt that Tuba has earned some playing time. I fully expect him in the game around middle first half. When he entered the game last night, LSU went on a solid run and never trailed again.

Still can't believe they get made fun so much. I never sat at the bottom when I was a student behind I hated being directly behind the goal.

I just wish the students would all sit together and not be so spread out

I can't say enough about how much the kid has improved, but I still think if he's getting meaningful minutes in games against better teams the odds will catch up to us.

I will say it's a good move to get him in these games. He brings an energy to a near comatose fan base. The team seems to feed of off it.

Good p.r. for a program that needs anything it can get to be noticed. CJJ I think realizes that and is using it. Del Piero is being a good sport about it, even letting Jordy put a tuba on him last night.

Whatever it takes to get anyone to pay attention helps.

But when the bullets start flying it's about playing to win and I think reality will take over.
